Who cares. Conference tournaments don't matter. The only thing they do is move your NCAA seeding either up or down. By the time the tourney starts, people know whether you're in or out--for the most part.
And I'll take these two losses if it means getting Nina for the Ladies and Syd and Kenton for the men some rest. We need healthy bodies for the tournament.All-Time Series Record: 60-43-5

take a&m for example - the only hope for them to make the ncaa tournament was to win the conference tournament....guess they'll be watching from their dorms...

If they don't it would be a shame.
Go Sinton Pirates and Lady Pirates! I also like old movies like "Dawn at Socorro." I also like the Tour de France. I like the Pelican West Band located at South Padre Island, Texas. Phil is PhiI is Bill is the compassion police. He is also the Sinton Matador. Some call him the Sinton Prophet. {Also Captain Obvious.

I agree with you KTJ. There is no doubt that if Nina had been playing it would have been a difference even though the Ladies almost pulled it off but played sloppy on offense and defense the last ten minutes and lost it. Still Texas should get a fairly good seed in the playoffs. What is the status on Nina? Will she be ready for the playoffs?Originally posted by KTJ

Rockdale--honestly, there was no way the men would have won it all. The women vs. Baylor in the finals would have been a great matchup. But considering how many people we have hurt on both teams, we need the rest.Originally posted by rockdale80

And yeah, a bubble team needs the conference tourney, such as A&M. But the tournament doesn't have as much weight as people think it does. And honestly, I don't think A&M was on the bubble. I think they were NIT bound to begin with. The OOC schedule was too weak, although their RPI did go up this past week. But that was due to the RPI of the Pac-10 being so poor that other schools and conferences around the nation went up.All-Time Series Record: 60-43-5

No matter what the men do it has been remarkable considering the circumstances this year.
I hope the ladies can reach their potential and Nina can come back. They were expected to make a good run with the seniors they have and hopefully they will do so. However now there is no tomorrow and one loss and you are out. Go Lady Horns!
